The Escort is a fine system, but I found it had two drawbacks. First, it was relatively heavy, tipping the scales at about 75 pounds. Therefore, you need to transport it on a dolly, which is something I'm trying to get away from on the smaller jobs, especially those that involve packing the gear up a flight of steps.

The only other drawback was it's lack of bass--it just didn't have that gut-thumpin' bass that I was hoping to hear. The quality of the sound was excellent, there are lots of control features not found on other amps, and the ability to pack it up into a single unit with speakers, amp head, mixer, cables and other accessories would make this a great amp for some folks. Gonna take a close look at the Motion Sound 200 and 100 this week. I'll let you know if they prove out to be any better.

Cheers,

Gary
